The Idaho bathroom goblin who won America’s heart will write a book about his totally straight adventures once he’s safely retired from the Senate. He told a local news station that the book will probably take a year or so to write and edit. In the meantime, he’s beginning to look into post-Senate job options — and because he’s Larry Craig, he manages to make it all sound incredibly filthy and wrong.

He said he is having a number of “one way conversations” – right now he can’t engage potential jobs due to Senate ethics rules, but can listen to offers.

So Larry Craig is indulging in a series of creepy “one-ways” while America waits for him to MAKE IT STOP, the end, Wonkette is forming a Book Club post haste.

Craig to write book for release next year [KTBV.com]

What a great week for literature: Scott McClellan and Larry Craig. It’s like Fitzgerald and Hemingway in 1935, or something.

Maybe not.

“Senator Craig confirmed reports that 99% of these “one-ways” are located at the “Big Steer rest-stop” outside of Boise, and involve a large bearded gentleman named Earl.”

The conversations are typically one way because Larry’s mouth is always full with another man’s penis.

The new book title is “Senate Seat or Toilet Seat” and here’s his theme song:

(Special thanks to the Village People “In the Navy”)

Where can you go Horatio

To give a cop felatio

Search the world for blowjobs

Behind every bathroom stall

Where can you begin to make your dreams all come true

In the can or on the sea

Where can you learn to lie

Play some footsie and jive

Study choosing toilet seats

Sign up for the Senate

Or sit in the grandstand

You’re not gay to tap your feet…

(Chorus)
IN THE SENATE
WE CAN DO WHAT WE PLEASE
IN THE SENATE
WE GET DOWN ON OUR KNEES
IN THE SENATE
IF YOUR PLANE’S RUNNING LATE
IN THE SENATE
FIND SOMEONE TO FELATE
IN THE SENATE
AND STILL GET TO THE GATE
IN THE SENATE
IN BETWEEN QUORUM CALLS
IN THE SENATE
WE GET BLOWN IN THE STALLS
IN THE SENATE
YOU CAN MAKE A QUICK CONNECTION
WITH AN OFFICER’S ERECTION
AND STILL HAVE TIME TO MAKE IT TO YOUR PLANE
IN THE SENATE
YOU CAN SIT IN THE CAN
IN THE SENATE
WHERE YOU CAN JOIN YOUR FELLOW MAN
IN THE SENATE
WHEN WE’RE DONE WITH DEBATE
IN THE SENATE
FIND SOMEONE TO FELATE
IN THE SENATE
SAY YOU’RE STRAIGHT WHEN YOU’RE NOT
IN THE SENATE
JUST TRY NOT TO GET CAUGHT
IN THE SENATE
WHERE’S A STRAIGHT MAN TO GO
FOR A BLOW – BLOW – BLOW -BLOW!!!

To the liberal hypocrites:
If he was a Democrat, would you care, or would you shove this under the rug, like you did with Barney Frank and his underage prostitution ring?
“Move on, move on.”
If Craig is gay, how is his behavior creepy, filthy and wrong, when you support gays who fit your political ilk when they engage in the same or similar behavior in public areas?

Your hate will kill you.

I hope to Sweet Jeebus that he doesn’t think I’m doing the movie adaptation with him.

1. I ain’t shaving…. unless he can score me a threesome with Steve Kmetko and Greg Lubedanus.

2. I’m not going back to a 40-inch waist and giving up inches off my biceps, chest, and quads.

3. Larry was kinda cute in a creepy, self-loathing neocon way back in the day; but now he’s just gross in a creepy, self-loathing neocon way.

4. It’ll be hard to re-create a sex club in the middle of Nationals Park.
